From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

When Albania came under Ottoman influence in 15th century the Orthodox people of Albania were members of the Archbishopric of Ohrid which was officially recognized by the Ottoman Empire.[1]


Mehmed II was dissatisfied because Ottoman army lost a battle fought against Skanderbeg near Ohrid in August 1464, and his new army gathered in the region of Bitola headed toward Albanian mountains.[2] During Skanderbeg's incursion into territory of the Sanjak of Ohrid many citizens of Ohrid probably compromised themselves in front of the Ottoman authorities.[3]


When Mehmed II returned from Albania after his actions against Skanderbeg in 1466 he dethroned Dorotheos, the Archbishop of Ohrid, and expatriated him together with his clerks and boyars and considerable number of citizens of Ohrid to Istanbul, probably because of their anti-Ottoman activities during Skanderbeg's rebellion when many citizens of Ohrid, including Dorotheos and his clergy, supported Skanderbeg and his fight.[4][5][6]

It is unknown how many citizens were expatriated and if they were exactly those who participated in the anti-Ottoman activities, or they were randomly collected to punish the city and its population, but it is obvious that not all Christians from Ohrid were displaced.[7]

Очигледно је, да су бар извесни Охриђани покушали да се ослободе Турака и да су и да су помагали борбу Скендербега. Исто тако је јасно да је ову акцију помагао и охридски архиепископ Доротеј.
